and forgive us our sins,
as we have forgiven those who sin against us.
I. GOD HAS FORGIVEN ME
Matthew 18:27 ESV
And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt.
II. RESENTMENT IS SELF-TORTURE
Matthew 18:33–34 ESV
And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers, until he should pay all his debt.
III. I NEED FORGIVENESS EVERYDAY
Matthew 18:35 ESV
So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”
